What Causes Pain In The Nipples After Using Tanning Bed?

I used a tanning bed for the first time this week and I used the tanning lotion they recommended. I did not wear any clothing on my chest tho and now it feels as if one of my nipples burnt. It is red and swollen with some red dots around it. It is very painful if it rubs on anything but weirdly I get some relief if i put pressure on my breast. It also feels warm to the touch? What should i do?

Good day and thank you for posting this question. Kindly stop using the tanning lotion on your breast. Traffic to clean a much of it as possible from your breast, take a shower and use Acetaminophen. The pain should subside.
I hope it helps.
Thank you.
